Chapter 2232: Not Perfunctory

She was the Imperial Concubine and the Emperor’s woman. How could she not even teach some lowly servants a lesson? She hadn’t done anything to Ms. Qiao directly, had she?

Ms. Qiao dared to make those lowly servants challenge her. That was disrespecting her superiors!

From beginning to end, she hadn’t done anything wrong. It was Ms. Qiao who was in the wrong.

Unfortunately, they were in Huaixi Province, and she was at a loss.

She had underestimated Ms. Qiao’s shamelessness. She had to think of another way.

When she was in court, she despised the concubines who cared too much about their reputation. They deserved to be scolded by her. But now, she couldn’t use the same method to deal with Qiao Xuan. She wished Qiao Xuan would behave like those concubines…

Consort Fu lowered her head. “The Emperor has instructed me to follow your decisions. I’ll do whatever you say.”

Consort Su flew into a rage and slammed the table. “Don’t patronize me! Hmph, don’t think I don’t know how you all are laughing at me! I’m asking you a question, so give me a proper idea! Otherwise, you’ll be looking down on me! And if you look down on me, be careful!”

Consort Fu was shocked and couldn’t help but feel angry.

What kind of person was this? A bandit! This was a bandit!

Oh, she was so angry that she became muddle-headed. This person was a bandit to begin with.

Despite Consort Su’s bluntness, Consort Fu cursed her in her heart. She was so angry she even cursed a few times out loud. However, the truth was that she really couldn’t afford to offend Consort Su.

Consort Su had been so direct that there was no way for her to be vague or avoid the situation.

Consort Fu could only grit her teeth and think of a solution. She felt very aggrieved. It was clearly Consort Su who had caused all the trouble without any consideration, but now she wanted her to fix it.

The tyranny in the palace didn’t work, did it? Serves her right…

Consort Fu thought for a while and then said, “Sister, since we’re here to win people’s hearts, why don’t we be more polite to Madam Shao when we see her tomorrow? As for today’s matter, we can say that my servant was insensible and caused the accident. We can explain it to Madam Shao. Since Lord Shao has accepted us here, he definitely doesn’t want to be enemies with the Emperor. As long as there’s a reasonable explanation for today’s incident, Madam Shao naturally won’t hold on to it. After that, we’ll think of a way to win over Madam Shao and ask her to put in a good word for us with Lord Shao. We’ll decide what to do based on the situation. What do you think, Sister?”

Consort Su looked at Consort Fu indignantly and snorted coldly. “I think your idea is fine. You young ladies from rich families are always more scheming. You can twist and change anything to suit your needs!”

Consort Fu was speechless.

She really wanted to roar, “Didn’t you ask me to come up with an idea? If I don’t come up with an idea, it won’t be allowed! I finally come up with an idea, and now you’re mocking me again!”

Consort Su didn’t care about Consort Fu’s thoughts. She said, “Fine, find a servant to take the blame. When you see Madam Shao tomorrow, you can tell her.”

Consort Fu suppressed her anger and said, “Sister, I’m afraid this isn’t appropriate. I wasn’t at the scene today, so even if I say–”

“So what?” Consort Su snapped. “Does Madam Shao really dare to take me seriously? She just wants to show her attitude!”
